Medical tourism involves taking advantage weaker currency rates in other countries and/or low cost air travel, to travel abroad in order get world class medical treatment in a foreign country. As part of the recuperation process, the patient can even spend time holidaying at a resort in that foreign country while the wounds heal. Alarmingly in recent times, there have been horror stories of botched surgeries performed by dodgy plastic surgeons abroad. Prospective patients should do extensive research about the practitioner before opting for any operation.
